I didn’t know about the original either until earlier today.  It looked cool and useful, so I took a glance at the code to see if it was fixable.  Turned out to be a 10min repair job. ---

Tiny bug, I can’t start a new paragraph. Since I don’t know English to well, let the pictures talk in my stead xD ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/wanikanicommunity/original/3X/5/0/5091d022b2f1aa41e21adc1a1d3d67113f66a975.png) ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/wanikanicommunity/original/3X/5/a/5a7ce778f8579ef4fd247e0b138cc390b4bc878d.png) When I save the notes, they go all in one line. I don’t remember the bug in the original script, but I could be wrong, it’s been a while since last time I used it.  ---
